Disadvantages: Additional setup may be required; can create dead zones if not configured

correctly. Coverage Considerations: Check for Wi-Fi interference from walls or electronic
devices. Look for ISPs that provide extensive coverage maps. 5. Data Transmission Speed:
Measured in: Kilobits per second (kbps) and megabits per second (Mbps). 1 Mbps = 1,000 kbps.
Considerations: Basic Browsing: 1-5 Mbps. Streaming HD Video: 5-25 Mbps. Online Gaming: 3-
10 Mbps for stable connections. Multiple Users/Devices: Consider speeds of 25 Mbps or higher.
6. CAP (Capped Plans) and Bundling: Capped Plans: Limit the amount of data you can use in a
billing cycle. Advantages: Generally lower costs. Disadvantages: Can incur additional fees if you
exceed data limits. Bundling: Combining internet with other services like TV and phone.
Advantages: Often leads to cost savings. Disadvantages: Can create complications if you want to
change one service without affecting the others Broadband refers to high-capacity transmission
techniques that allow multiple signals and traffic types to be sent simultaneously over a
communication medium. It is a general term for various high-speed internet connections that
cover different technologies. Characteristics of Broadband: High Speed: Typically offers speeds
exceeding 25 Mbps, allowing for faster downloads, uploads, and streaming. Always-On
Connection: Unlike dial-up, broadband provides a continuous internet connection, enabling
users to access the web without waiting. Multiple Channels: Supports various types of data
transmission (e.g., internet, voice, video) simultaneously
